The raster GIS layer on Sheep (2010) described in this document are part of the Gridded Livestock of the World database (GLW v3.1).
The GLW database was developped to meet three objectives:
Two main methods have been described in the litterature for distributing census data at the pixel level. The areal-weighted (AW) method simply considers that all pixels of the census area are equally suitable, and assign them an equal weight. It simply corresponds to the density of animals per km2 in the census unit multiplied by the pixel area. The dasymetric method (DA) assigns different weights to different pixels based on high resolution environmental predictor variables and Random Forest models, and the animal census counts are distributed according to these weights.
The AW and DA GLW global distribution data fit different purposes. The DA GLW models provide an estimate of how livestock species may be distributed within census areas. However, spatial predictors (e.g. human population density, vegetation indices, topography, etc.) that are used to derived the downscaling weights may introduce some uncontrolled counfonding effects for users willing to quantify the effect of livestock alongside these spatial predictors on an outcome. Similarly, the DA models may introduce circularity for users willing to use livestock data to study their impact on some these spatial factors, such as land-use, for example. The AW GLW models are free of any influence of spatial predictor variables, but produces more unrealistic distribution patterns, especially in large census areas containing a wide range of different land-use and farming conditions.
This report presents snapshots and links to high resolution maps of the different data layers available with the GLW v3.1 data package for Sheep (2010). Three GIS layers are provided, as geotiff, with an extent of X:-180 to 180 / Y:-90 to 90, a resolution of 0.083333 decimal degrees, and with the projection CRS “+proj=longlat”:
Note that the snapshot below were produced in the equal-area pseudocylindrical Eckert IV projection for a proper representation of densities. The standard lat/long visualisation of global raster data tend to visually over-represent animal densities in pixels located in northern latitudes as they cover a much lower surface on earth than those close to the equator. Altough the data files are distributed in lat/long, we recommend the use of an equal-area projection for displaying our livestock density data.
A high-resolution version can be visualised here.
The average spatial resolution (ASR) gives an estimate of the average resolution of each spatial unit used to build the GLW models. It is estimated, for each country as \(\sqrt[root]{Area/N_u}\), where Area is the surface of the country in square km, and \(N_u\) is the number of sub-national units per country.
The following histogram and maps show the year of sub-national census data used for the GLW models.
The following plot shows the goodness of fit metrics of the predictions summarized by continent and polygon size. Note that these GOF are all established through cross-validation, i.e. by measuring the correlation between observed and predicted animal numbers (log10-transformed) in polygons that were not used to train the Random Forest models (see Nicolas et al. 2015, for details). Note that some values are supported by a very low number of polygons (indicated by the np, which is the mean number of polygons used to estimate the correlation between observed and predicted values at each bootstrap).
The GLW database was originally described by Wint & Robinson (GLW v1, 2007) and used the DA method with weights quantified through stratified multiple regressions. The modelling procedure was automated and standardized for GLW v2 (Robinson et al. 2014) and the methodology used to derived the weights was recently improved by replacing stratified linear regression by Random Forest for producing GLW v3.0 (Nicolas et al. 2016). This dataset is described in full in Gilbert et al. (2018).
